Chapter 380 - 380: Heart-Treading Technique- Part 1



“This formation belongs to the Rain Pavilion and has nothing to do with the District Master of the Black City District. The District Master won’t appear here,” Dai Fangxuan whispered.

“If you hadn’t shown any emotions before touching the formation just now, I might have believed you,” Chen Fei replied.

Chen Fei approached the iron door and carefully observed the formation in front of him. The defensive power was not particularly strong. If Chen Fei wanted to forcibly break through, he could do it within three strikes.

However, if Chen Fei really did that, it was likely that before he could enter, a group of Aperture Tempering Realm cultivators would rush over and surround him, making it difficult to escape and easily trapping him in a deadly situation.

“You’ve misunderstood,” Dai Fangxuan tried to explain, his tone sounding very humble, as if he had been wronged.

“Feigning a desire to survive is a pretense. The real purpose was to lead me here, wasn’t it?” Chen Fei turned to look at Dai Fangxuan, then glanced at the formation. His expression showed a slight change as he continued, “This formation, apart from attracting the District Master of the Black City District, should also be able to lead you inside. At that time, you can still stay alive!”

Dai Fangxuan looked at Chen Fei, and his expression gradually shifted from confusion to coldness and resentment.

Dai Fangxuan didn’t bother to keep up the pretense anymore. After Chen Fei exposed his intentions, it became evident that all his previous actions had been unraveled by Chen Fei one by one.

Continuing to feign innocence would be futile.

While Dai Fangxuan did genuinely want to survive, he also wanted to drag Chen Fei down with him, leaving Chen Fei with no way out.

Since a mid-stage Aperture Tempering Realm cultivator couldn’t defeat Chen Fei, he decided to call upon the District Master of the Black City District, who was in the later stage of the Aperture Tempering Realm. This formation indeed belonged to the Rain Pavilion and had no direct connection with the District Master of the Black City District.

However, the Rain Pavilion and the District Master of the Black City District were in an alliance. When the Rain Pavilion faced danger, the District Master of the Black City District, within his capabilities, would assist the Rain Pavilion in overcoming the crisis.

When this formation was normally activated, it would naturally reveal the contents of the hidden treasury inside, without raising any suspicion. But if the activation method were changed, it would serve as a means to communicate, and the message would be directly transmitted to the District Master of the Black City District.

At the same time, as Chen Fei had speculated, this formation would lead Dai Fangxuan into the treasury, temporarily safeguarding his safety using the treasury’s formation, while waiting for the arrival of the District Master of the Black City District.

This was the survival plan that Dai Fangxuan had thought of when he was facing death.

As Dai Fangxuan stood in front of the iron door, with his palm just inches away from the formation, he was overwhelmed by the excitement of escaping death and trying to pull Chen Fei into this situation.

However, it was just those few inches that prevented Dai Fangxuan from touching it, and Chen Fei directly intervened, blocking everything.

At that moment, Dai Fangxuan’s emotions were indescribable. To keep Chen Fei off guard, Dai Fangxuan had been acting very obediently since entering the Black City District.

There were actually several opportunities during this time when Dai Fangxuan could have secretly relayed information, but there was always the possibility of Chen Fei discovering it. Even if he hadn’t been discovered by Chen Fei, the arrival of the District Master of the Black City District would undoubtedly alert Chen Fei.

In that case, Chen Fei would have had plenty of time to first kill Dai Fangxuan and then escape.

Dai Fangxuan wanted to stay alive. Even if Chen Fei died, Dai Fangxuan couldn’t accept the idea of his own death.

What Dai Fangxuan most hoped for was to witness, under the protection of the formation, the scene where Chen Fei was intercepted by the District Master of the Black City District and then brutally killed.

Therefore, Dai Fangxuan obediently led Chen Fei all the way to Miao Qisheng’s courtyard and to the entrance of the secret treasury. Everything went smoothly, and they were only inches away from achieving the ultimate goal.

But in the end, it was just that tiny distance that separated them.

“Without me, you can’t open this formation, and you won’t get anything,” Dai Fangxuan looked at Chen Fei and sneered.

“Nothing is absolute! Recognize this?” Chen Fei’s arm opened a wound, and blood gushed out, turning into a bloody mist that spread over the nearby formation. The formation showed slight ripples but didn’t reject the power of the blood mist.

Dai Fangxuan stared at the blood mist and the changes in the formation, his eyes gradually widening as he recalled a certain legacy he had read about in ancient texts. The Rain Pavilion was an assassin organization, but it also took on various other tasks as long as they were commissioned. Therefore, their information-gathering was meticulous.

Among the information collected, there was knowledge of Blood Origin Techniques, and this was due to a technique within the Blood Origin Techniques that temporarily allowed control over formations. As long as it wasn’t an extremely extravagant and top-tier formation, it could generally be managed, with the only variable being the duration.

Similar techniques existed in a few other cultivation legacies, but most of them were lost over time.

Blood Origin Techniques fell under this category of lost techniques. Dai Fangxuan had never expected to encounter this technique today in this place. And with Blood Origin Techniques, wouldn’t Chen Fei be able to easily enter the secret treasury?

Dai Fangxuan lifted his head and saw a flash of swordlight blooming before his eyes. The next moment, his consciousness plunged into an infinite darkness.

Even in death, Dai Fangxuan had a question he wanted to ask, and he also wanted to hurl insults at Chen Fei, venting his frustration and anger. However, Chen Fei hadn’t given him the chance after showing him the Blood Origin Technique.

Dai Fangxuan thus collapsed on the ground with a sense of bitterness and resentment, his breath gone.

Threads of spiritual essence floated up from Dai Fangxuan’s body and merged into the Qianyuan Sword. With a casual motion, Chen Fei collected the spiritual weapons and elemental stone pills from Dai Fangxuan, then proceeded to dissolve the formation of the secret treasury..
